5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring thoughts for meditation!, April 13, 2006

By 

Br. Francis (Colorado) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Thoughts of the Cure D'Ars (Paperback)

This is one of the most simple and beautiful books you will ever find. It is not a story, but instead it is a collection of quotations from St. John Vianney. Every one of them has something for us to learn from. Also, each quotation will tell you what book it's from (or sermon etc..). Therefore, if you find a number of quotes that have helped you, then you may be able to find that book somewhere on the Internet. My only complaint is that there is not really any organization in the book,(e.g. splitting one section on purity or faith or whatever). But, that is not enough to take away from this book! It should be beneficial to anyone to meditate on the different words the great preacher from Ars spoke!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A little heaven in a little book., October 5, 2007

Augustine Thomas "Augustine Thomas" (MI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Thoughts of the Cure D'Ars (Paperback)

This book, as small as it is, contains many profound spiritual insights. Comprised of short quotes from his sermons and catechetical instruction, this book gives you a peek into the holiness and love of St. John Vianney, the Cure of Ars. In my opinion, this is one of the most inspiring little books that TAN has published. Although seminarians and priests will benefit the most from the thoughts of the "patron of parish priests," anyone seeking to grow closer the Lord will also find much nourishment.

This review is from: Thoughts of the Cure D'Ars (Paperback)

After reading the biography of the Cure, I wanted to read some of his very words. This little book has a lot of his quotations on all different subjects. Now I just want to read more and more of what this holy man wrote!
